Abstract
A series of iminothiazolidinone-sulfonamide hybrids (2a-k) was synthesized by heterocyclization of sulfanilamide thioureas with methyl bromoacetate and characterized by spectroscopic techniques, mass and elemental analysis. The synthesized derivatives were screened against four relevant human (h) isoforms of carbonic anydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) I, II, IV and IX. These enzymes are involved in a variety of diseases, including glaucoma, retinitis pigmentosa, epilepsy, arthritis, and tumors. Derivatives 2a-2k exhibited the best inhibitory activity against the cytosolyc hCA II (KIs are reaching the sub-nanomolar range, 0.41-37.8 nM) and against the tumor-associated isoform hCA IX (KIs are spanning between 24.3 and 368.3 nM). The binding mode of the reported iminothiazolidinone benzenesulfonamides within hCA II and IX catalytic clefts was investigated by docking studies.
